Apparently we've had a bid turned down for Swindon striker luongo. They want 5mill!

£3.5m for a midfielder who will be bypassed due to hoofball tactics

Midfielder my bad. Sounds like they don't want to sell so we are pricing him out

He is an attacking midfielder who can play as a striker

We have bid £3.5 million. My idea of austerity is a bit different to some.

From what ive read about him he has been played in the number 10 role for australia and been outstanding. Sign him up and put him in to replace whitts. This would be a coup if we can sign him imo.

He sounds like something you would buy in Starbucks. Lol

Really can't see anything this good coming off if I'm honest

The kid is outstanding. Plays Central midfield. Better more forward but can play the holding role if required. Not a huge guy but will tackle hard. Gifted technically. Will be totally wasted under Slade

Luongo turned down a $7 million tax-free offer from a Qatar club just a few days ago.

He said during theAsian Cup here that money isn't the motivation. Only wants to leave Swindon if the football environment is the best for his development. Left Spurs and more cash for Swindon and first team football. Really good head on his shoulders. Doubt he'd come to play under Slade IMO

No chance then if he knows anything about us

Why would he want to play for our fans? No one who wants a productive environment would want to play at the CCS with no noise apart from whinging and booing.

Usual bollocks.

Two stories mixed into one.

CCFC show interest + Luongo rejects £3.5M Qatari offer = CCFC offer of £3.5M for Luongo rejected.

Cutting back and people are hoping we bid well over 4 million for a league one midfielder when we've let people like daelhi go for a fourth of the price.

Hope we dont allow Slade that kind of money to spend

I dont believe for one minute City have offered that much money.

Re: 3.5mill rejected massimo luongo

Probably doing what the Riddler used to and bid for players we know we cant get and say look we tried

Agree to an extent but he's not your average League 1 player and he's a mile ahead of Daehli. He's better than any midfielder currently at Cardiff

Exactly Luke,they think we are all idiots

He just scored a brilliant goal in a major international tournament.

Why the f**k would he want to join this Circus when he could play in the top tier? He also said he wants to stay at Swindon this season.

Hopefully it goes somewhere though...

Ah yes. But, to be fair, Daehli was crap. Even Slade could see that.

Re: 3.5mill rejected massimo luongo

Mon Feb 02, 2015 6:57 pm

Someone just tweeted luongo saying best wishes and good luck from swindon town... is he off?
